[Using the IG API to trade in the USA500 (SP500)]

Hello,

I want to use the IG API to place automated orders with the SP500 (EPIC: IX.D.SPTRD.IFS.IP) but using /positions/otc with this data:

                   "epic"          => "IX.D.SPTRD.IFS.IP",
                    "direction"     => "BUY",
                    "size"          => "1",
                    "orderType"     => "MARKET",
                    "stopLevel"     => 3830,
                    "forceOpen"     => "false",
                    "currencyCode"  => "USD"

I get the following response:

"errorCode":"unauthorised access, user has no access to the relevant exchange. Epic=IX.D.SPTRD.IFS.IP
exchangeId=IND_GBL_GBP"
 

Maybe I am doing something wrong or simply I can't operate this instrument with the API?

Thank you very much

Best regards.
